Michael is a consummate mechanic, and the best Campy expert I've ever known. His willingness to keep a large inventory of Campy parts is legendary. He's also there to support his customers. Many times he has shared his knowledge with me, allowing me to handle mechanical issues on my own. During my racing days he was also there more than once on a Saturday afternoon, fixing a broken shifter or whatnot so I could race the next day. Thumbs up and thank you to Wheelfine!
When I considered having a bike built and tailored to my needs, there was not a second thought that Mike at Wheelfine Imports Pro Shop would be the professional to apply his expertise to see this task through. From the custom made Tommasini frame, wheels, handlebars and more, he planned and implemented a bike that focused on best fit, comfort and performance. The process required lots of discussion and time and attention to details which was never rushed. Mike's customer service exceeded my expectations and made this an exciting experience; it was evident that he shared a genuine interest in delivering the ultimate custom bike.
Wheelfine is THE place to go if you are serious about cycling. Mike is hands down the best bike mechanic I have ever dealt with. He does good honest work at a very fair price. He can fix things you didn’t even know were wrong with your bike. I had my 1976 masi serviced after having it put together at a local shop. After having mike work on it, it was like a completely different bike. Mike is truly a master with bikes especially the older bikes that others don’t/won’t work on. Could not recommend this shop enough!
After thorough testing of the wheels I can now say they are round! They really are much rounder than the original wheels so I am very happy. Jokes aside, thank you very much for building this great set of wheels for me and handling the whole process of sourcing parts. Onyx hubs are very nice indeed. Overall they are perfect for my rides so far. Highly recommend Wheelfine Imports A+++
I came to Michael Johnson at Wheelfine Imports more or less out of desperation. A broken chain link had destroyed my rear derailleur, and in the process, bent the derailleur hanger into a “J” shape. I tried bending it back, but gave up when it became clear I wouldn’t be able get it back into shape. The usual fix would be to weld on a new hanger, but the frame is a combination Reynolds 535 and graphite composite, and there was a graphite transition very close to the hanger, making welding all but impossible. The frame manufacturer declined to service the frame, and a very reputable bike shop told me that welding wouldn’t be feasible for them. But they did recommend that I bring it to Michael Johnson at Wheelfine and said if anyone can fix it, he’s the one.
So I brought the frame to Wheelfine. He took a quick look at it, put the hanger in a vice, and with deft hands and a good deal of confidence, bent the hanger back to the right shape. He retapped the threads for the derailleur and made the fine adjustment to true the hanger to the plane of the wheel. He let me watch the entire process, and I felt that I was in the presence of a master. The rest of the repair was pretty routine, replace broken spoke, true the wheels, mount and adjust new derailleur and chain. I feel as though I have a brand new bike after almost giving up on it and scraping it for parts.
I would not hesitate to recommend Michael Johnson and Wheelfine to anyone. The depth of his knowledge and skill is incomparable.
